Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Panasonic NN-T983SF 2.2-Cubic-Foot 1350-Watt Microwave
Customer Review: Excellent quality microwave
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my 2nd Panasonic "Genius" microwave. I bought the first one about 22 years ago and it finally conked out. This unit has nearly twice the power of the old one and probably 45% more interior space as well as a smaller footprint and 1/3 the weight. I paid $450 for my first one back in the early 80's. I see now that Amazon has raised the price from the $125 I paid a couple months ago to $169, but regardless the quality is worth every dollar. You can buy a cheaper unit, but not with these features. I find that I don't need to "zap" foods at the highest power setting or else they will get overdone or ruined. Best thing to do is read the directions and be conservative with the power. A microwave is indispensible in the kitchen for a good cook. I can do whole meals with mine. It's more than a coffee maker and popcorn popper. But if you want something that will cut the time in preparing a dinner, get this Panasonic unit. Otherwise, if you are a bachelor who can barely boil water, then get yourself a Walmart el-cheapo microwave for $40. I am hoping that this Panasonic T-983SF will last as long as my other did. I fully expect it to. But who knows -- in 20 years we may have a whole new technology out there.
9/12/05: The above was actually posted April, 2004. Oh, well -- big disappointment now. After using my microwave for nearly 1-1/2 years it died on me. I called Panasonic Customer Service and they said they knew of no issues with this unit. Hard to believe that. I called the area service center and a service tech said the same thing. But he suggested that instead of me bringing it in or shipping it, that the problem is likely that I have blown the "Main Power Fuse" and I could probably get a replacement locally for a few dollars. Otherwise, I would have to ship it to them and they would charge $26 to replace the fuse. I am going to try replacing the fuse myself or getting someone locally to handle it. I still love this microwave -- if it works. I feel sure it must be the fuse. But if it's not, then I don't know what I will buy to replace it. I guess there is something out there with the same features. Panasonic should be ashamed of themselves to ignore this problem and deny there have been no issues.
Description of Panasonic NN-T983SF 2.2-Cubic-Foot 1350-Watt Microwave
Don?t let the stylish finish and reflective door of this 1350-watt microwave from Panasonic fool you. Behind that pretty face is a roomy appliance with plenty of power and features that have been engineered for convenience and results. To eliminate cooking guesswork and the need for constant monitoring, Panasonic equips this oven with its clever Genius sensor cooking technology. The Genius system automatically adjusts power levels and cooking times, no matter what the food is, so you can simply push a button on the touchpad and walk away. This model offers 10 power levels and 18 one-touch Genius food categories, ranging from breakfast to beverages. The model also comes with Genius one-touch reheating capability. The defrost function uses Panasonic?s Inverter technology for fast and thorough results. Other handy features include a keep-warm setting, a delay-start function, and a more/less time control. The standard details are also here--timer, clock, quick minute button, and popcorn key. Panasonic also includes a multi-lingual action screen and an automatic glass turntable measuring 16-1/2 inches in diameter. --Emily BedardCountertop Microwave Ovens
